Playboy Blues
Chapter Two
"I think it's fine that Enri's committed," Johnny laughed casually when Oliver told him the news.
"It's about time he entered commitment anyway," Robert agreed. "AND it's about time we got ready for that BEGA tour in France!" he added.
His team mates weren't so happy at the sudden loss of intrigue.

A week passed an in no time, the Blitzkrieg Boys were in the City of Lights.
"Tala! So glad you could make it!" an enthusiastic Garland greeted at the airport.
The redhead was not pleased. "Garland! What is this?!" he roared, shoving a posted in the other boy's face. "'BEGA Champions' tournament'?! I thought this was going to be a match between us and not a televised competition!"
What? Bryan didn't know about this tournament either.
Garland shook his finger at them. "Not my fault. Brook got the sudden urge to see all your faces again, so he invited every team he could get hold of."
Tala scowled.
"But let's not dwell on things!" Garland continued. "Come and I'll show you all to your hotel. Paid for as promised," he grinned.
None of the boys could stay upset with an offer like the one Garland had given them. Everything would be paid for by his team so they were free to do whatever they pleased.
"Come ON! We better get going. You're the first team to get here so you're lucky enough to get the first picks on your rooms," the flamboyant teen sang.

Whatever. THEY weren't the European Champions anymore. What were the chances they'd got invited?
"I resent BEGA," Johnny said with an air of disdain as they headed for the room the corporation had picked out for them much later that afternoon.
"Why?" Oliver asked. "Are you surprised to find someone richer than us?"
"Relax guys," said Enrique. "You never know BEGA may just be a bunch of air-headed pricks…"
"They were awesome during the World Championships!" the Parisian replied dramatically, then frowned at the blonde. "I'm guessing you didn't watch it since you were sleeping with half the continent!"
"Was that the World Championships we WEREN'T in?" Robert asked, quite miffed as they were greeted by the members of various teams.
Johnny laughed at this. "Bloody hell! Robert's STILL bitter!"
"Hey," Enrique said quietly, effectively catching the attention of his team mates. "You guys realize almost all the teams these past three years are in this tour."
The others nodded. "And so?" they asked.
The Italian was about to answer as the German unlocked the door to their suite when he saw who their neighbors were. Enrique let out a low whistle.
"Hey! It's the English people!" Ian said amusedly as he and Spencer exited their room.
Spencer frowned. "Ian, that's rude and inaccurate. Not all Europeans are English…" he corrected.
The smaller boy just laughed. "Whatever. Let's just head for the pool before Bryan and Kai find out we've ditched them," he commented off-handedly.
It wasn't that hard to tell whether Robert heard what the Russian said or not for a vein popped up on his forehead. Johnny rolled his eyes and followed him in the room. Oliver giggled a bit and made to do the same when he caught sight of Enrique staring wistfully at the direction where Spencer and Ian disappeared to.
The greenette took his arm gently and tugged. "You'll see him later." he said kindly.
The playboy shook his head and entered the suite.

"Hiwatari…" Bryan started after a long silence. "Where are Birdhead, Thing One and Thing Two?" he asked, anger rising in his voice. Oh when he'd get his hands on those traitorous lice, they would dearly pay.
"Tal' headed down to the pool," Kai replied unnerved. "Don't really know where the giant and the dwarf went…are you all right?" he asked as he looked at Bryan.
Bryan made a noise of irritation and cursed under his breath. "It's the fucking atmosphere," he replied, still unpacking as if to take his mind off things.
He didn't want to leave the room until it was time to battle and leave for Russia as soon as possible.
